The Glasgow Wedding Collective.

So far I have been to about 5-6 wedding
fayres in less than three months and I think it is pretty safe to say
I've had my fill for a while. For anyone who is new to them, word
of advice; pace yourself. They are very exhausting! As expected there are usually a lot of sales people there, all asking you the same
questions and you will be swamped with lengthy conversations and
leaflets.

The one that was my favourite and
really stood out from the crowd was The Glasgow Wedding Collective. They showcase
some of the 'most
creative, kitsch and downright gorgeous handpicked wedding suppliers
from throughout Scotland'.
Exactly what I am looking for! It is quite a small fayre, but the
atmosphere is lovely and all the people on the stands are friendly,
putting no pressure on you. The suppliers and products on display are super funky and vintage inspired. So far I have found an
amazing photographer, stationery and some vintage decor accessories that I
all have my eye to get sorted on (ASAP!). Each company also has a really
unique personal feel, not seeing another wedding as just another big
commercial money maker.

The
next farye is on April 15th
(11am – 4pm) at Hillhead Bookclub
in the west end of Glasgow and entry is free. What's even better is
that Hillhead Bookclub is uber cool, doing some great food and yummy
cocktails. So plenty time to chat over any ideas and pop back up to
admire some of their gorgeous vintage dresses and accessories.

Hello

I'm Lindsay and he's Gary (mainly myself blogging, as Gary is usually in the kitchen). After seven wonderful years on the roller coaster ride that is dating, we have finally decided to get married. The only problem is we don't have a clue where to start. So this blog is about us and our mad cap adventures planning the big day. All posts are sprinkled with love.
